Hi
Does anyone know a good firm for this kind of work?

APR Media in Somerset. aprmedia.com if I remember correctly. They produce all my DVD's for which they use Sony Labs in Austria. Duplication is less sophisticated and will probably do that in-house.

Thank you John. I'll take a look.

Hi Stuart,

I've managed to find a firm just a couple miles from me here. Thanks for the offer of help.

This is one of those rare things about modern technology that I do truly appreciate ...

In the old days, (when I used to rock out in the studio's), we used Adat tape and made my masters on DAT tape. Back then, I had to go to professional studio's like "Discmakers" to get my CD pressings ...

But low and behold! In this day and age, I can make nearly the same level of audio, (more than passable) on my own home PC, whether it is regualr audio CD's MP3's or otherwise.

The only thing that isn't quite as good from home is the actual packaging for CD's, but even that is playing a good game of catch up!

But hey ... I would much rather be back in the days of vynl, (yeah, I know I mis-spelled that)
